I made a mini album for my customers to pass around so they can see the new colors 1st hand! I compaired the NEW colors with their replacments...and I thought you'd all like to see the differences too!
ATTN POSITIVELY PINK LOVERS: there is a HUGE difference between Pixie Pink and Positively Pink. If you are a Positively Pink lover like me....you might want to hang onto yours....order the re-inker and MORE CARDSTOCK. I use Positively Pink with Gable Green ALL the TIME....the new Pixie Pink does not go well with Gable Green (darn!). I wish Positively Pink wasn't going. However...the new Regal Rose is close to it...just less florecent.
I am totaly DIGGIN' the NEW colors versus the originals! THese Changes were DEFINATELY needed!
The new colors layer sooooooo great with each other and with the existing colors! I'll be stamping all after noon and into late evening. I'll try to post some CREATIONS with the NEW COLORS
Thanks so much!! This really helps. Hunter looks so much better than Forest Folliage, definitely more Green.
Question though, the new pink (first thumbnail) what color does it remind others of? Not sure I'm thrilled with that one. ETA ~ I think it's too "magenta" for me.
Actually, the new Pixie Pink reminds of raspberry sherbet -- a color I would like to see them get. I wasn't that big a fan of Positively Pink anyway. I'm very glad I waited to get the Eggplant, I think that's a major improvement. Looks like the new Rose will be good. My only complaint is that I want both Bashful Blue and Bliss blue. I'll be sad when all my Bliss Blue stuff runs out.
Paris, thank you so much for showing us the new colors!!! You are such a cool demonstrator!
I am totally going to miss my RR, BrBr, and EE! They were my absolute favorites! The BlBl was my daughters!
I just hope there is enough still left to order - it said while supplies last. Seeing your joy and excitement about the new ones does give me hope though. �
Thanks Again!
Thank you for posting these! It does help to see them side by side.
I don't know if I'm sold on the Pixie Pink though. It looks almost like Orchid Opulence to me. But that could just be my monitor too though.

It is just the moniter/scan-- In real life, Pixie Pink is a few shades down from Pink Passion! It's great! I love ALL the new colors more than the old!
Elegant Eggplant is my new favorite color-- it's a PERFECT match for our purple hemp twine! Take a look at this card in my gallery:
Paris! Shame on you for posting the new colors! I was holding out on pre-ordering the colors that were "replacing" others (I did order all the BRAND new ones and will get them Friday!). Now, thanks to your pictures, my will is breaking!!!!! Oh, what's a girl to do?? I feel myself going down that slippery slope of buying more! LOL!!
The new eggplant looks really, really dark on my computer monitor, is it really that dark in real life? I am trying to decide whether to order more Eggplant Envy cs, I really love that color, but I am a purple lover, so I am sure I will love the new eggplant, too!!! Thanks so much for sharing the new colors! I love the new pixie pink and rose romance, just not too sure about the eggplant!
Thanks so much for sharing these. I love the way you did your display to compare the colors. It is so awsome that us customers can see some of this before July 1st.
I just got my new summer mini and the new colors are also in the back of it! They are very small, though! I don't know how accurate they are, Paris' comparisons are probably better, but just wanted you non-demos to know you can also see them in the summer mini.
Paris: Thanks for posting that. That really helps to see the difference.
Can you do me a huge favor? Can you post the old positively pink next to the new pixie pink, and also inlcude the regal rose on the same page? I have reinkers for the ones leaving and am trying to decide how quickly I "need" the new pixie pink. Thanks.
You NEED the new Pixie Pink. It goes so well with the Pink Passion. I've been showing my customers Pos Pink against Pink Passion then Pixie Pink with Pink Passion and they all OOh and AAH. It's going to be a hit and they all can't wait to order it. I myself just love the new color. Although it was one of my first stamp pad colors to buy I was never a fan of Positively Pink.
Pixie Pink is a perfect layer to Pink Passion....it's a shade or two lighter and will layer really nice with it. I never used my Pink Passion as it had no "partner"...but now I will! YIPPIE
Regal Rose kinda looks like the old Positively Pink. But Pixie is less "flourecent". Regal Rose looks fine with Gable Green, Thank god!
Elegant Eggplant is darker...very very very beautifull and more true to Eggplant! I never used EEnvy...but will definately use Elegant Eggplant!
Bravo Burgundy is a tad darker than Boroque....but the eyelets still match!
The Forest eyelets match Handsome Hunter too! I'm sure SU! will change them slightly...but for now they work just fine!!!
Thanks so much!! This really helps. Hunter looks so much better than Forest Folliage, definitely more Green.

Dude, it looks like Pepto Bismal!!!! I hated positively pink anyway so it doesn't matter to me!
Ohhh Thanks for sharing this with us Paris..I love the new Green but I am with you on the Pink, I love the old one(current one) better:-(
I can't wait to see the new catalog when it comes out :-)

see NEW SU! colors & compair to relpacements
